What are the types of policy loans that I can avail of?

Most plans except term coverage generate cash value. For your personal needs, you can make a loan against your policy provided that it has earned sufficient cash values.


  • Cash loan – Can be obtained up to a maximum of 80% of the cash values.

 

  • Premium Loan – If premium remains unpaid after the 31 days grace period and the policy has earned sufficient cash values, the premium may be charged as a loan against the cash value. If you opt for the Premium Loan Option as your Premium Default Option, this will be automatically done. Otherwise, please advise us through your Lifeplanner.

What will be the effects of policy loan?

In the event of a claim, unpaid loans are deducted from any amount payable to the beneficiaries. If at any time, the total amount of loan including interest exceed the cash values, the policy automatically terminates.

When do I pay my policy loan?

You may repay your policy loan, in full or in part, any time. If the loan is not paid as of policy anniversary date, the accrued interest is added on the principal loan. You may request Sony Life to bill you for your outstanding loan.
